THE CHANGE IN THE LAW.
The old Soldiers and Their s2O E1
 ennfIon on Sl.OOO-Muat Go Refo

The old Soldiers and Their s2O Ex.
 emptIon on $l,OOO-Must Go Refore
 the Board of Relief Next Time.
 The property owning old soldiers must, next fall, go before the board of relief and take oath to their being entitled to the $20 exemption on $1 ,000. They will have to go through the same form as they did last fall
 before the board of assessors. This is be-
 cause the law as amended by the legislature
 puts the matter into the hands of boards of
 relief. So the old soldiers must recollect that
 to be exempted on the next tax list they must
 in due time pay visit to the board of relief.
 The amended act reads as follows:
 Section 1 of chapter 137 of the public acts of 1886 (page 634) is hereby amended to read as follows: The board of relief for each town in this State shall exempt from taxation to the amount of $1 ,000 the property of every resident of such town who has served in the army or navy of the United States in time of war and received an honorable discharge therefrom, or SO much of the property of the wife of every such person not in excess of said amount as the husband holds life in terest in; and property to the same amount of the resident widow or widowed mother ot every person having so served and been SC discharged and of pensioned widows and mothers of soldiers and sailors who served ln the army or navy of the United States. Such exemption shall be made by said board of relief if, upon due hearing, they find that the person asking for the same come within the provisions of this act; provided that there
 shall be no exemptions under the provisions of this act except in the town in which the
 person entitled to such exemption resides.

Fire in the Rear Of CitrOn'S Cigar
 Store.
 A fire broke out in the rear of Citron's cigar store, State street, opposite the Selden House, last night at II o'clock. No. and Hook and Ladder No. were soon at the scene and extinguished the fire. It was caused by an overloaded stove pipe, which ran from the back of Yet Long's Chinese laundry into the chimney at the rear of Citron's store. The store and the rooms over head occupied by MT. Citron and family were densely filled with smoke. Mrs. Citron and her child found refuge at MT. Engers. MT. Citron has 5000 cigars and some leaf tobacco stored in the damaged part. He estimated his loss at several hundred dollars, and has $2, 900 insurance through Wilson's agency. The building is owned by Jacob Heller.

General Secretary Kellam's room in the City Hall, the headquarters of the Monument day committees, is a busy spot. MT. Kellam, it goes without saying, is the right man in the right place, no one being better fitted for the difficult and delicate duties of the po- sition. His hours have been constantly occu- pied in receiving or answering letters, mail ing invitations, giving information to or re- ceiving suggestions from the chairmen of the different committees, and in receiving visits from citizens in general in reference to Monument day affairs.

 The armory committee was authorized to procure lemonade enough for 5000 people to be served at the armory Thursday evening. The beverage will be distributed to the audi ence in tumblers and trays. The monument committee, which was unintentionally overlooked, was extended an invitation to be present at the reception at the armory.
 Two barges have been procured for dis abled veterans. They will seat about forty. The proposition of Town Agent Reynolds to furnish float for the use of disabled veterans was accepted. It is thought that nearly one hundred veterans who are unable to march will be given an excellent place to view the exercises on the rock. It was voted that Grand Army veterans should have the preference as regards con. veyance.
 It was voted to appropriate $40 additional for rations for five hundred members of the naval battalion. It was also voted that three thousand copies of the official programme of exercises be printed. A list of dignitaries who will speak at the armory in the evening of the 18th are as fol lows:
